District Government Affairs.


Attorney Davis having had under consideration
the question or land used In the construction OF
trunk lines OF sewers for Mt Pleasant in the water
course from Grant avenue and Eighth street ex-
tended, writes to the Commissioners that the
subject has occasioned no little difficulty. He
says: "1here Is no law under which the Commits
s1oners may condemn private property for the
construction OF sewer. The late boai d OF public
works constructed numerous public sewers, trav-
ers1ng private property, and in many instances
suit was brought for trespasses, resulting In YER
diets against the District. All that can be done is
to obtain the assent OF the property owners. The
proper course Is TO procure the ri hit OF way"
BUILDING PERMITS

A. Brown, to repair No. 246o P street northwest;

ney Davis the commissioners have refused TO pay

THE NATIONAL RIFLES AND THE CHICAGO DRILL
One OF the rules established by the managers OF the
International military encampment to Oe held at
chicago In October, is that ali infantry companies
competing Tor prizes shall be either regularly mus
tered into the National Guard or belong TO an es-
tabliShed cadet corps. In view OF this fact the
en- hatically expressed intention OF the National
Rifles to participate in the drill is regarded by
some persons as AN intimatlon that they expect to
become part OF the District National Guard be-
fore October, or that they hope that exception
to the rule Will be made In their case. Unless one
or the other is done 1t Is not apparent how they
can compete In the drill, as under their present
organization they are surely dlsDdrred from COM
petition.
